- We tested the hypothesis that controlled hypoxemic resuscitation improves early cerebral metabolic and electrophysiological recovery in hypoxic newborn piglets. Severely hypoxic anesthetized piglets were randomly divided into three resuscitation groups: hypoxemic, 21% O2, and 100% O2 groups (8 in each group). The hypoxemic group was mechanically ventilated with 12-18% O2 adjusted to achieve a cerebral venous O2 saturation of 17-23% (baseline; 45 +/- 1%). Base excess (BE) reached -22 +/- 1 mM at the end of hypoxia. During a 2-h resuscitation period, no significant differences in time to recovery of electroencephalography (EEG), quality of EEG at recovery, or extracellular hypoxanthine concentrations in the cerebral cortex and striatum were found among the groups. BE and plasma hypoxanthine, however, normalized significantly more slowly during controlled hypoxemic resuscitation than during resuscitation with 21 or 100% O2. We conclude that early brain recovery during controlled hypoxemic resuscitation was as efficient as, but not superior to, recovery during resuscitation with 21 or 100% O2. The systemic metabolic recovery from hypoxia, however, was delayed during controlled hypoxemic resuscitation.

- Cerebral blood flow was estimated on 60 occasions in 15 well infants, 29-34 wk of gestational age, 5-17 days after birth, using 133-Xenon clearance after intravenous injection. The sleep state of the infants was determined by biparietal electroencephalography, clinical observation, and tracings of heart rate and respiration. Blood flow was 22% higher in the 11 estimations made during wakefulness, when compared to the 17 estimations made during quiet sleep. There was no difference between blood flow in active and quiet sleep. Also there was no difference between blood flow during periods of trace alternant and blood flow during periods of continuous electroencephalographic activity. It is suggested that flow-metabolism coupling is present in stable, preterm infants. The absence of an increase in cerebral blood flow during active sleep as compared with quiet sleep suggests that the neurophysiologic and neurometabolic mechanisms of rapid eye movement sleep are not yet fully developed in preterm infants.

- Peripheral nerve regeneration relies on the ability of Schwann cells to support the regrowth of damaged axons. Schwann cells re-differentiate when reestablishing contact with the sprouting axons, with large fibers becoming remyelinated and small nociceptive fibers ensheathed and collected into Remak bundles. We have previously described how the receptor sortilin facilitates neurotrophin signaling in peripheral neurons via regulated trafficking of Trk receptors. This study aims to characterize the effects of sortilin deletion on nerve regeneration following sciatic crush injury. We found that Sort1(-)(/)(-) mice displayed functional motor recovery like that of WT mice, with no detectable differences in relation to nerve conduction velocities and morphological aspects of myelinated fibers. In contrast, we found abnormal ensheathment of regenerated C-fibers in injured Sort1(-)(/)(-) mice, demonstrating a role of sortilin for Remak bundle formation following injury. Further studies on Schwann cell signaling pathways showed a significant reduction of MAPK/ERK, RSK, and CREB phosphorylation in Sort1(-)(/)(-) Schwann cells after stimulation with neurotrophin-3 (NT-3), while Schwann cell migration and myelination remained unaffected. In conclusion, our results demonstrate that loss of sortilin blunts NT-3 signaling in Schwann cells which might contribute to the impaired Remak bundle regeneration after sciatic nerve injury.
